Congrats on declaring this, Priya! And wish you the best when you engage with the mysteries. I think all of us writers know exactly what you mean. I for one am always struggling with half finished stories and poems and having a self declared deadline for getting that draft done seems like the right call. PS> Agree with the approach of the middle path and the B-man!

I haven jumped into it, but your discussion about the middle way resonates with what little I’ve heard about the Greek concept of the golden mean.

As for myself I’ve been working in plowing through about three years of unpublished blog drafts and either finishing or trashing them. I would like to be done by the end of this year but won’t kick myself if it drags through next year.

Good luck on finishing the novel. In architecture I’ve always felt the last 1% takes an inordinate amount of work but that’s what separates good from great. It won’t be easy but you got it! 加油!
